IXL is very disliked and has examples of kid having depression and being very angry because of it. My group and me believe that it should not be used at Kelly Mill Middle School.

IXL is one of the worst programs ever!! If you do not understand a subject, the IXL's explanation is so confusing, and makes your understanding even worse. When your smart score is high, if you get one wrong, it drops your smart score down by like 10 points. If you get one write, you get 1 or 2 points. This goes on for along time, and the more questions you answer, the more IXL punish's you for getting it wrong. This causes anger and depression, as many people have cried, and slammed their cromebooks because of IXL. Also, my parents also think IXl is trash, and should be replaced by KahnAcademy, as that creates a personalized lesson plan for you, and it's explanations actually makes sense.
IXL is an intially productive program for learning and extra practice. However, when graded, it becomes a stress-inducing nightmare for students. Also, since the amount of points that you receive for correctly answering a question decreases the more questions you have answered, but the amount of points taken for incorrectly answering a question does not, which creates a very one-sided system that can cause A's to turn into B's or B's to turn into C's. I propose that we still practice using IXL, but no more graded homework on IXL.
lol ;)
Ixl is a easy grade
Based on the comments I have read, none of you are using the grammar rules you've been taught this year and greatly need the practice IXL provides. No one says that you must get a 100, and you all know that. Finally, you would have little to no homework daily if you didn't use class time as your personal social hour all day long in every single class you are enrolled.
Really, guys? do you honestly have enough free time in class to sign and comment on a petition? ALL of your classwork and homework is completed? Hmmm...I will have to let your teachers know that apparently you do not have enough work to keep you busy during class. Sound like a plan?

Mrs. Bruney I personally signed this at the end of the day packing up because we never have free time in class. I signed this petition because we already have enough homework and IXL is really frustrating with it's grading system.
